Atlasburg is a small community in Washington County, Pennsylvania, where the post office maintains 146 PO Boxes for just 102 occupied homes. This adoption rate of 1.43 indicates the post office serves not only local residents but also surrounding areas without direct carrier delivery. The ZIP code classification designates this as a PO Box Only Zone, meaning there's no alternative mail delivery infrastructure across the 0.09 square mile territory.

Despite its PO Box classification, Atlasburg does have limited street delivery serving both city and rural routes. The mixed delivery pattern includes one city carrier route and one rural route alongside the PO Box services. Streets follow a traditional numbered grid, with 2nd Avenue, 3rd Avenue, 4th Avenue, and Main Street forming the core.

Many of those 491 workers commute from elsewhere. About 27% of local residents work from home, suggesting a mix of remote workers and retirees in this small Pennsylvania community.
